This Bogu is made here in Japan, at our headquarters in Nishijin, Kyoto - to your exact specification, measurements and design. We are dedicated to bringing our customers the chance to customise their Bogu, and Tozando Custom Workshop Kendo Bogu Set now offers you the chance to design your 'dream' Bogu set. The standard specification is a top quality 2.0 Bu Deluxe Bogu set, however, through our various upgradable choices a higher specification can easily be achieved.
The craftsmen in charge of making your one-of-a-kind, made-to-order Bogu set, are amongst Japan's most experienced and respected craftsmen. They all practice Kendo too, so they know exactly what Kendoka look for in 'the perfect' Bogu set.
Thousands of Kendoka around Japan, including many famous players and Sensei, ask our craftsmen to make Bogu for them - because they know they will receive a perfect fit.
Made -to-order in every possible way, Tozando Custom Workshop Kendo Bogu Set allows you to create a Bogu made in every way to be yours.

Please be aware that each Tozando Custom Workshop Kendo Bogu Set is custom made, and like any tailor-made item, a great deal of time and effort goes into producing each one. This is not a 'run of the mill' bogu, and because we are providing you with the very best quality and perfect fit this Bogu cannot, and will not be sold 'off the shelf'.

Please be aware that in order for us to deliver a top quality, hand-crafted bogu set that delivery may take some time. Please expect to wait approximately 4-6 months for shipping, depending on the specific options you have chosen. Further, as our craftsmen are amongst the most popular in Japan, their workload is extremely heavy, and none of the Tozando Custom Workshop Kendo Bogu Set is made using machine or factory processes. For this reason, it is impossible to work to exact time scales. However, shortly after placing your order, you will be provided with an 'Estimated Shipping Date' which represents the initial date to which the craftsmen will work to.
*Includes all Himo (strings), a Bogu bag and a Tenugui.

Whoaaaa!!! The picture of the bogu with the blue mune design is the picture of my actual my bogu which was crafted by Tozando's masters. The bogu fit perfectly on my body. I highly recommend it! :)))))))))

Exceeds Expectations

I ordered just the men from this set.

The manufacturing process took a bit longer than expected, but this is understandable given the detail and care that went into making the men. Shipping was lightning fast and more than made up for the delays.

The fit is great: it is comfortable, light and provides good mobility, visibility and protection.

I'm eager to continue breaking it in!

Best Kendo Bogu Ever!

I actually visited Tozando main store in Kyoto and met three master craftsmen there. They showed me how each part of Bogu was made and gave me the professional advises. So I made up my mind to place the order for my first hand-stitched Bogu set with Tozando. After five long months, I finally received the breathtaking beauty and all of my dojo members were so impressed by the quality of Tozando. I can assure you that Tozando's Kendo Bogu is the best in the world!

Had some high expectations with this bogu set,....and I am really satisfied with it. The Kote are extremely soft and comfortable to wear right from the start. The men is very good aswell, fits nicely and is definately a work of art when it comes to craftsmanship!Ordered a bamboo Do-dai (Kiji) and it looks just awesome. I can honestly say the best set of bogu I ever had!
